KFC - Random TopicsI notice a lot of food at restaurant chains don't taste as good as they used to...McDonald's fries, BK fries and chicken tenders, Wendy's burgers and fries, even KFC chicken. I'm thinking the ban on trans fats might be the culprit, but many foods changed taste before the ban took effect. After the ban, the foods changed even more. When canola oil is used to cook food, it ruins the flavor, big time. Peanut, corn, and sunflower oils seem to make the foods taste better. Chick-fil-A cooks their chicken with peanut oil, and it tastes good. They once cooked their fries the same way, and they were tasty...but one day, they didn't taste so good, and we soon found out why: They now cooked their fries in CANOLA oil. -- Submitted By: () on March 15, 2012, 11:59 am

Transporter, The - Movie SeriesI must respectfully disagree. I like his movies. Yes the plots are pretty much the same, but the action sequences are good. He does have an acting "range". I agree with you about Mr. Cage. Very one dimensional acting. -- Submitted By: () on March 10, 2012, 6:14 pm

Yes - Music GroupsFloundering without Jon Anderson on vocals. Benoit David gone for apparently the same reason Anderson was, respiratory problems... that doesn't wash. He just did not have Anderson's high range; it shows with the lower keys used performances for Fly from Here and the strain on David's voice is obvious on the live album....Instead of asking Anderson back, they have hired Glass Hammer's lead vocalist.... meh. -- Submitted By: () on March 5, 2012, 1:17 am

Dawn Lyn - CelebritiesI guess I'm in a unique position here as I actually KNOW Dawn Lyn - she's a personal friend of mine. I should point out that I am British and as such not as familiar as most with Dawn's career. Her brother, Leif Garrett, WAS something of a celebrity 'over here' back in the '70s but Dawn never had the same exposure in the UK.
So what DO I know about Dawn Lyn..? Well, I know Dawn is generous and thoughtful - two qualities that seem to be becoming rarer and rarer these days. I know she is modest - she never tells any new people she meets about her acting career unless they mention it first - and she has a genuine warmth about her. I always feel better after having spoken to her.
My girlfriend and I have been house guests of Dawn and her husband at their home in Germany and, in turn, Dawn has stopped with us at our home in Derby, UK. We're all the best of friends and en=jpy hanging out together.
So how does it feel when I read all the criticism of Dawn? Well, to be honest, most of it amuses me simply because it's uninformed, 'n'th generation bullshit that bears no resemblance to what I KNOW to be true! It's disappointing that people are not only willing to create 'untruths' about someone, but other people are prepared to accept them without question.
All the criticisms of Dawn early career can easily be countered. Dawn didn't launch and manage her own career so criticising her for it isn't hurtful to her - it's irrelevant! You're criticising the wrong person/s. Dawn never 'pooped' on a guest star on 'My Three Sons' (I know that to be the case) and even if she did, is it hard to believe a little child might have an 'accident'? You would criticise a CHILD for something like that? Just because she was on TV doesn't mean she didn't have the same bodily functions as any other child?
Dawn's relationship with her parents was, as might be expected, different to what most of us might consider normal. Any child brought up in a film or televison studio is not going to have the same life 'grounding' as the rest of us and the parents who put that child there are going to be different kinds of parents, too. It's doesn't necessarily make anyone WRONG (after all, notions of 'right' and 'wrong' are only popular opinions and not universal physical laws) but it does make them different. Dawn's career was guided by her parents and the roles she was given were, likewise, decided by people other than Dawn.
I don't like to see any friend of mine subjected to inaccurate and downright cruel accusations and I'm sure all of you would defend your friends in the same way, wouldn't you? If you wouldn't... Well, can you REALLY say you're a true friend to them?
I'll probably get a stream of abusive replies to this post and no doubt words like 'retard' will be bandied about, too... Good luck with that, people. I know Dawn Lyn and you people don't - I think that gives me the edge here whatever the smart mouths might say... :-) -- Submitted By: () on February 28, 2012, 4:31 pm

Addams Family, The - TV ShowsSorry, but upon comparison, THE MUNSTERS, even THE GROOVIE GHOULIES are too many steps ahead of the Gomez and his creepy kin: It's surprising that the Addams Family had to wait until the nineties to be on the big screen. -- Submitted By: () on February 22, 2012, 10:22 pm

Munsters, The - TV ShowsThe mentioning of the movie MUNSTER, GO HOME is all you really need to conclude how the Munsters boned. Even with the luster of the movie being in color, the show's cast no longer was spirited (knowing full well the series was already cancelled), and Debbie Watson (and neither Priest nor Owen) was Marilyn. Also, all prime time shows would be filmed in color in a full time basis which would have been financially too much for the series. -- Submitted By: () on February 22, 2012, 10:16 pm

Brady Bunch, The - TV ShowsThe show was just developing during its first 2 seasons. The show was at its sentimental peak the years the family went to Grand Canyon and Hawaii during seasons 3 and 4 (which also saw the kids sing). But season 5 was a fatal disservice as Peter and Jan looked and were of high school age, Bobby and Cindy were of adelescent age, and the arrival of cousin Oliver: The show just went as far as it really could. -- Submitted By: () on February 22, 2012, 10:01 pm

Beverly Hillbillies - TV ShowsIf it boned on anything I'm afraid I have to say the interplay with PETTICOAT JUNCTION during the remaining third of its run. In all fairness, it was also a way to console the cast of its sister show after the death of Bea Benadaret (who played Kate Bradley on JUNCTION and Pearl Bodine on HILLBILLIES). Despite any luster of the interplay, Bea's death might have awaken the sponsors to the demographic disadvantages of the rural shows. -- Submitted By: () on February 22, 2012, 9:50 pm

ABC World News - TV ShowsNews shows can't bone. Their content and anchors can change every day. Plus, ABC has done a good job picking anchors. CBS and NBC... not so much. -- Submitted By: () on February 22, 2012, 6:41 pm

Two and a Half Men - TV ShowsIt's become the Kutcher & Cryer show.. it seems the other "1/2" only makes brief cameos nowadays..nothing like it was during the early seasons.. i guess as long as CBS & Chuck Lorre are making millions off this show, they don't care how bad it gets -- Submitted By: () on February 20, 2012, 9:31 am
